Lyrics : Cuyahoga - Live From Pyramid Stage, Glastonbury Festival / 1999
This is called "Cuyahoga", we hope you like it
Let's put our heads together
And start a new country up
The father's fathers fathers tried and erased
The parts they didn't like
Let's try to fill it in
Bank the quarry, river swim
We knee-skinned it, you and me
We knee-skinned that river red
This is where we walked
This is where we swam
Take a picture here
Take a souvenir
This land is the land of ours
This river runs red over it
We knee-skinned it, you and me
We knee-skinned that river red
Gathered up our friends
Banked the quarry, river swim
We knee-skinned it, you and me
Up underneath the riverbed
This is where we walked
This is where we swam
Take a picture here
Take a souvenir
Cuyahoga is gone
Cuyahoga is gone
Let's put our heads together
To start a new country up
Underneath the riverbed
We'll burn the river down
This is where we walked, swam
Hunted, danced and sang
Take a picture here
Take a souvenir
Cuyahoga is gone
Cuyahoga is gone
Rewrite the book
Review the pages
Saved in grace, secured in faith
Bury, burn the waste behind you
This land is the land of ours
This river runs red over it
We are not your allies
We cannot defend
This is where we walked, swam
Hunted, danced and sang
Take a picture here
Take a souvenir
Cuyahoga is gone
Cuyahoga is gone, now
Cuyahoga is gone
Cuyahoga is gone, now
Sh*t, I almost spit on Peter Buck, that would have sucked
Uh, that's Peter, I'm Michael, that's Mike, we're R.E.M
Thank you very much for turning to us while we perform our little set of songs, we're really happy to be here
Let's put our heads together
And start a new country up
The father's fathers fathers tried and erased
The parts they didn't like
Let's try to fill it in
Bank the quarry, river swim
We knee-skinned it, you and me
We knee-skinned that river red
This is where we walked
This is where we swam
Take a picture here
Take a souvenir
This land is the land of ours
This river runs red over it
We knee-skinned it, you and me
We knee-skinned that river red
Gathered up our friends
Banked the quarry, river swim
We knee-skinned it, you and me
Up underneath the riverbed
This is where we walked
This is where we swam
Take a picture here
Take a souvenir
Cuyahoga is gone
Cuyahoga is gone
Let's put our heads together
To start a new country up
Underneath the riverbed
We'll burn the river down
This is where we walked, swam
Hunted, danced and sang
Take a picture here
Take a souvenir
Cuyahoga is gone
Cuyahoga is gone
